    Humans, at their basest, can’t stand the unknown. It’s frightening and that’s why we want to know: We NEED to know!

    You exist so that you are able to formulate the question of “why do we exist”

    “You realize humans are the only creatures who care about this stuff?”

    And you know that – how?

    Ok, you dragged me in… Humans have succeeded at survival to such an extent that we have to invent new games to keep from being bored. The survival game is still quite enough for the rest of the creatures here.

    Donald Trump cares about accumulating a lot of stuff, so maybe we can improve him by magically changing him into an animal.

    We’re running out of room for more stuff. If you’re not rich enough to send stuff to space, try accumulating followers instead.

    Surprised no one else jumped in with this:

    Scott, Carmen, have you turned into socialists?

    I mean, worrying about quality of life vs. collecting stuff?

    When I’m buried. I want my hands to swing in the wind, so that people understand that we come to this world empty handed and we leave this world empty handed after the most precious treasure of all is exhausted, and that is TIME

    Doesn’t everyone know that we don’t know why we exist?

    Humans were given the ability to reason.

    Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better. An article written by Ida Auken, a member of the Danish Social Liberal Party. The phrase has been summarized as, “You own nothing and be happy”. Couple this idea with all the good vibes, joy and happiness the American democrats are “selling”, and attain a heaven on this earth.

    Life as we know it is simply a dream, and when that individual wakes up, life as we know it will cease to exist.

    The phrase pack rat refers to people collecting “stuff” but why that phrase? Well, because there are many animals that also accumulate “stuff.” I think of bower birds, and crows as well.

    But how many animals accumulate “stuff” to enhance the status/well being of their offspring?
